Revised event – details below….

All are welcome!

The Forest Stewards Guild has been around for 25 years. As we celebrate this anniversary and look back, by the nature of the Guild’s focus we must also look to the next 25 years. This is a time for more than remembrance, it is a time for reflection, mutuality, and regeneration. Interpersonal dynamics, lessons learned in the forestry field, and the lessons to come are just as complex as a forest’s ecology. During this session, forestry professionals with varied years of experience among them will share where they are in their careers and how forestry has changed.

We will then build off our panelists’ insights and continue the discussion together. Thinking back on your stories and experiences we will discuss where we are going, our legacy and the legacy of the forests we conserve. This is the time to reflect and talk about our challenges, barriers, and opportunities for forestry. Rather than simply debrief our status, we hope to spark and encourage different thoughts and actions for the future of forests.

We welcome you and your colleagues and students of forestry to join and engage and connect.
